Our earlier $GENIUS Act overview introduced the legislation following its passage. Businesses now need to move from understanding the framework to evaluating their operations, counterparties, and implementation deadlines. The first distinction concerns timing. The $GENIUS Act, enacted July 18, 2025, does not give every business the same three-year transition period. Section 20 generally makes the Act effective on the earlier of 18 months after enactment or 120 days after the primary federal payment stablecoin regulators issue final implementing regulations. Treasury has identified January 18, 2027 as the expected effective date. A separate restriction on certain offers and sales begins July…

Distribution of stablecoin transfer volume by time of day. Source: Coinbase and The Block Research, via Dune Analytics Seven of the 10 largest US banks have tested stablecoins or tokenized deposits for settlement, while 30% of mid-market companies conducting cross-border business are using or piloting stablecoins, up from 10% in 2024.

Chainlink is now at the center of this debate. Notably, its reserve has increased its holdings of the native token by 89,200 $LINK, worth $1.11 million, taking total holdings to 6.29 million $LINK. In fact, over the past 30 days, it has accumulated another 431,900 $LINK worth $5.41 million. The catch? These tokens aren’t being spent on network development right now. Source: Chainlink Reserve As the chart above shows, not a single $LINK token has left the Chainlink Reserve. And that is because, from a technical perspective, the prolonged accumulation could create a supply-demand imbalance on the market. Should buying…

Let the Definition of Digital Commodities Be Included in Binding Regulations! At the heart of the debate is the SEC’s approach to classifying crypto assets, published in March. Six organizations argue that this approach should be incorporated into formal regulatory provisions, rather than merely being included in explanatory texts. The tokens involved include Chainlink, Hedera, Aptos, Avalanche, Stellar, and Cardano. In their letter, these six companies and foundations argue that the SEC should incorporate the crypto classification criteria it published in March into official rules to reduce regulatory uncertainty. The basis of the organizations’ request is, in particular, the view…

Issuing companies raise capital in U.S. dollars through perpetual preferred shares that offer predetermined periodic yields. The proceeds obtained are immediately deployed to purchase Bitcoin across exchanges and over-the-counter (OTC) desks. According to Fidelity Digital Assets’ analysis, this operational structure transfers financing risk to the cryptocurrency’s appreciation capacity. The firm noted in its document that the model requires the long-term appreciation of the underlying asset to outpace the nominal cost of dividends pledged to investors. Between March and May of this cycle, issuances of this nature enabled the purchase of more than 95,000 $BTC, mobilizing over $7 billion in private…
